mouse! Scouts' Honour. Talk about a whack job.
So I Went crazy about this venture, poring over fairy tale Every dust cover Could I find, looking for puppets and princesses, mermaids and evil witches, handsome princes-both human and lion-and hideous beasts. I wanted to put a new spin on Those forgotten stories of Our past, so everyone That Could Irrespective of age enjoy Them, Them slowly making a part of childhood That we're all so fond of talking about. That's What I wanted, That's What I did. And They loved it. Mickey Mouse Became a pal to Children everywhere, loved and adored by one and all.
And what did old Walt do? He started putting the mouse here and there, clever little symbols right in plain sight, and still hidden. He probably thought of it as a way to connect with his audience, to share a little something more with them. His symbols grew to incorporate things he personally valued or thought highly of. Nobody noticed. It wasn't important. What mattered was that the cartoons were good, the children were happy and that was the end of that.
It was just the beginning. Over the years he has been accused of being an illegitimate child, a Freemason, a Nazi sympathizer and some sort of Frankenstein monster waiting to be reawakened in a hyperbaric chamber under Disneyland, California. Of trying to influence and brainwash young minds into following some sort of new world order, Of subliminal messaging and Satanic projections. Quite a feat when you're six feet under, I'll say.
It's amazing, really. I grew up watching Disney, as I'm sure countless other people before me and after me have. If all those subliminal messaging and countless 'Sex in every frame' stories are true, I should pretty much be a whore by now. I'm not saying Disney did not hide secrets in his movies, because he did. They just aren't the ones everybody thinks they're seeing. I can point out the word
sex on my window curtains and in my dish washing liquid three hundred times if I look hard enough. Doesn't mean I should sue the company. And it sure as hell doesn't make my curtains Satanic or Masonic. Apparently there's no difference between the two. Go figure... \u0026amp
